Drugs are often counterfeited to reduce manufacture costs, while still marketing

it at as an authentic product. Increased incidence of drug counterfeiting is most

noticeable in developing countries, which may not have the resources to supply

counterfeit detection devices on a large scale. It is important to consider the

problems caused and to propose options for controlling and reducing the prevalence

of counterfeit medications. Various technologies are needed to identify the chemical

properties of a questioned medicinal product, which can then be used to determine

its authenticity. This volume focuses on current technological approaches that are

able to detect counterfeited pharmaceuticals.
